Born of Spirit
??John 3:5-8 KJVAAE??
[5] Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. [6] That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. [7] Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. [8] The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
??Galatians 4:22-24 KJVAAE??
[22] For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a free woman. [23] But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the free woman was by promise. [24] Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Si´nai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Hagar.
[26] But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.
[31] So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free.
Born of Adam in the flesh,sinful nature,going against God
Reborn from God's promised spirit through Christ,
Rolling away Stony heart that the Holy Spirit might enter,
To raise up a new creation within that longs for God's word,
To dwell within as being purified into A Child of the Living God.
